As a result, Three Hills RCMP, with the assistance of the Southern Alberta Crime Reduction Unit, executed a search warrant and located a large quantity of stolen copper wire in the residence and in an outbuilding on the property. A male was also located hiding in a travel trailer and arrested without incident.

Police say 2,100 pounds of wire was recovered worth an estimated $9600.
